Where it is used

Principle

Main Door Material, Art and Colour: Solid Wood with Auspicious Carvings

Make the main door of solid wood such as teak, ideally with a little sandalwood, and carve auspicious symbols, mantras and floral designs on it. Energy takes on the chemistry of the material it passes through, so flush, ply, fibre and glass doors weaken the result.

A little sandalwood mixed in, as in royal doors

Main door

Principle

Choosing Wood for Furniture and Beds: Teak, Sandalwood, Sal and Asan

Teak is the best furniture wood, ideally with a little sandalwood mixed in and joined with wooden pegs or copper or brass nails. Asan wood drives away negativity and disease, while tendu must never be used and mango must never be used for a bed.

Furniture and beds throughout the home

Principle

Sun (East) Interior: Colours, Sandstone, Copper, Pictures and Plants

The East belongs to the Sun. Its interior uses light orange, greens, pink, yellow and ivory white, sandstone, copper or gold-polished showpieces, sunrise pictures and sun-loving plants.

Plants: red rose (indoor), bougainvillea, peace lily, giloy; fruit trees and white sandalwood outdoors only

East zone and East wall; garden to the East

Questions and answers

How can one test whether Parjanya devta is imbalanced, for example when factory machines keep breaking down?

Burn a little peeli sarson at Parjanya's place: if it bursts out in sharp sparks that touch the body, Parjanya is upset or imbalanced, which is why the machines there break down and do not give production. If the trees of the house do not reach their proper height or bear good fruit, Parjanya is displeased. Parjanya is active when a little original chandan applied there spreads its fragrance through the whole house and the residents' wishes come true.

How do we know whether Shikhi or Parjanya is deactivated?

Use the same tests taught for activation. If the devta is deactivated, no fragrance spreads (desi ghee for Shikhi, chandan for Parjanya) and no sprouting happens (the wheat jaware for Shikhi, the coconut on the kalash for Parjanya).

What results do flush, plywood, fiber and glass main doors give?

The main door should be only of wood, best of teak, and royal doors were of sandalwood or had a little sandalwood mixed in. Flush doors are made from plywood of thorny shrubs, so even a house costing crores with a cheap flush main door does not get good results, because energy takes on the chemistry of the material it passes through. A sandalwood Om or Swastik pasted on the door also gives very good results.

Should the sandalwood be kept under the bed or inside it?

Use sandalwood (not silver) and keep it in the bed, under the mattress, so that it touches the wood of the bed.

How much sandalwood is needed for the bed remedy?
